LITTLE serious thought at times does none of us, any harm.) ; IF YOU really want to meditate, opportunities are numerous. In South Chicago, lor exam pie, a bum tells a reporter that what with flophouse lodylngs boosted from 13 cents to 30 cents a night and meals upped' from 20 cents to 70 cents his old, com fortable way of life has been about wrecked. "Such increases are too much," he says. "X guy can't relax. I'm going to have to go back to work." E VEN inflation, you soo, has Its ed on organized production, ANY THING that sends people back to work helps. IF, IN the weok following a four day holiday, you are In the mood at all for meditation, here Is more raw material: In tha Philadelphia, home of Louis Somorshoc, a big rat got- a hind foot caught in a trap. When Louis and his family returned from a weekend out of town the cmbattlod rat, with the trap clinging to one foot, chased them all up on tables and chairs when they opened the door and entered the room. Louis finally managed to elude the rat long enough to TELE PHONE THE POLICE and a squad of officers arrived In a riot car and disposed of tlio rat with their persuaders. THIS is the point for medita tion: Louis' GRANDFATH ER, Instead of calling the police, would probably havo found a way to bash the rate with a chair leg. In his day, you didn't look to government for anything you could do for yourself. STILL, you never can tell. Up in Salem the other day, a robber chopped a holo In a Jew elry store with an ax, and was In the act of making off with a couple of diamond rings when MRS. Buddy Ryan tamo along and collared him, ax and all, and held him until the police arrived. s HE didn't HAVE to. She could have waited for GOVERN MENT (as omhodicd In the po lice force) to do tho Job. That Just didn't happen to bo HER way. Her way was to handle the situation herself. It takes all kinds of people to make a world. The point for meditation is that thero ARE all kinds of peo plenow as in the past. ON THE inflation front, the first $1.25 haircut and $1 shave reported from the Pacific Coast appear in San Mateo coun ty, on the Peninsula, below San Francisco. The secretary of the San Ma teo county barbers' union, an nouncing the Increase, says it is necessitated by higher costs of operation and living. That is normal reasoning In In flation times. V. DURLING, who used to be a reporter in Los Angeles but now is a big columnist ifc New York, reported the other day on the results of dollar hair cuts in the Big Town. The cash customers, even on Broadway, he said, are making the. dollar hairdos GO FARTHER by the simple process of going longer IN BETWEEN. That is the standard, time- i testediformula far; dealing' jwHh' THE EXPERT OPINION By CHARLES V. STANTON , The current weekly report observer contains one point ing predictions of professional economists and statisticians in , Washington independent forecasters, not frenzied bureaucratic propagandists mates as to probable increases six months have been scaled Prior to the demise of OPA these professional statisticians presented varying estimates on the rise of living costs, their various "guesses" ranging from 15 to 25 per cent. Remem ber, these increases in living costs were based on the pre sumption that the OPA and price controls would REMAIN in effect. "Now that OPA is resting, at least temporarily, in the ash can, these estimates, while still varying, have, almost unanimously, been scaled downward, generally around; five per cent. This means that in the opinion of these men, who make a business of compiling statistics and predicting future trends, prices entering into cost-of-living will not advance as far without price control as they would have done under continued OPA regulation. These estimates are based upon actual facts and figures, public opinion polls, etc., from all parts of the country and gre not influenced by OPA's scare campaign. Our observer, incidentally, reports that the flood of pro-OPA letters and telegrams showered upon Bowles & Co., and the CIO of the form letter type, do not vidual congressmen. Prices are expected to rise milk, bread, etc., the increases compensating for the loss of subsidies. The American public (has been fooled into thinking prices were being not paying them direct. They were paying their money in taxes. Producers were the table, the subsidy, as on creased from time to time to costs. Not only did we pay still are paying the expense unnecessary employes to handle subsidies. But some other food items not advanced in price and, in Estimates by statisticians believed congress will .re-enact rent control measures, which are expected to contain penalties for those landlords who upped rental charges during Clothing Is expected to make in price perhaps as much as offset within a few months by tvne of garment which has quate quantity under OPA. j Contrary to propagandist mobiles would' soar to stratospheric heights, a survey of manufacturers indicates that tho maximum increase will not exceed. 10 per cent. We have found our Washington observer extremuly accu rate in tho past He hr.s maintained an extremely conserva tive attitude whon many others were going off tho deep end. He has shown an uncanny ability to peer into the future and come up with the right answers. In these days when paid propagandists aro screaming of inflation, and the general public is kept more or less fearful lest dire predictions of scare campaigners be true, it is a relief to find men who deal with cold facts and figures indi cating that our fears are groundless and that evidence points to more satisfactory conditions without price controls than with them. Monarchs to Play Eugene Store Nine Receiving a challenge from the Eugene Outdoor Store Softball team to play the strongest pos sible Roseburg nine available, Jerry Muggins, local league man ager, reports that the Monarchs will be Ihe local representative in the Sunday evening contest at the local diamond.

It was the eighth loss for the Padrns In a row at the hands of the Seals, who crept up to half a game behind tha league-leading Oakland Acorns, splitters of a twin bill with the Seattle Rain iers. Melton fashioned the Seal victory out of eight-hit pitching, walking no Padres. At Seattle the Rainiers won the eight-inning opener 1-0 and the Acorns, sharing the league lead with the Seals as they went into the nightcap, retaliated 5-3.
